19.2 Input/Output Pins and External Connections

19.2.1 List of Input/Output Pins

Table 19.2.1.1 lists the RFC pins.
Pin name I/O*
SENBn A
SENAn A
REFn A
RFINn A
RFCLKOn O
If the port is shared with the RFC pin and other functions, the RFC input/output function must be assigned to the
port before activating the RFC. For more information, refer to the "I/O Ports" chapter.
Note: The RFINn pin goes to V
if the pin is biased by an external circuit.

19.2.2 External Connections

The figures below show connection examples between the RFC and external sensors. For the oscillation mode and
external clock input mode, refer to "Operating Mode."
